Coping with Floods
ISBN: 9780792327066 / Angielski / Twarda / 776 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Floods are natural hazards whose effects can deeply affect the economic and environmental equilibria of a region. Quality of life of people living in areas close to rivers depends on both the risk that a flood would occur and the reliability of flood forecast, warning and control systems.
Tools for forecasting and mitigating floods have been developed through research in the recent past. Two innovations currently influence flood hazard mitigation, after many decades of lack of significant progress: they are the development of new technologies for real-time flood forecast and...

Fluid Dynamics of Viscoelastic Liquids
ISBN: 9780387971551 / Angielski / Twarda / 757 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about two special topics in rheological fluid mechanics: the elasticity of liquids and asymptotic theories of constitutive models. The major emphasis of the book is on the mathematical and physical consequences of the elasticity of liquids; seventeen of twenty chapters are devoted to this. Constitutive models which are instantaneously elastic can lead to some hyperbolicity in the dynamics of flow, waves of vorticity into rest (known as shear waves), to shock waves of vorticity or velocity, to steady flows of transonic type or to short wave instabilities which lead to ill-posed...

Liquid State Physics: A Statistical Mechanical Introduction
ISBN: 9780521114349 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. First published in 1974, Dr Croxton's book takes the reader from a consideration of the early ways in which the kinetic theory of gases was modified and applied to the liquid state, through a classical thermodynamic approach, to the modern cluster-diagrammatic quantum and statistical mechanical techniques. He includes chapters on the development and numerical solution of the integral equations relating the atomic structure to the pair potential, on the nature of the liquid surface, on the computer simulation schemes and on transport processes and irreversibility in the liquid phase.

Modeling and Simulation of Turbulent Flows
ISBN: 9781848210011 / Angielski / Twarda / 750 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Focusing on the fundamental bases for developing turbulence models on rational grounds, this text considers different methods of approach-ranging from statistical modeling models at their various degrees of complexity to numerical simulations of turbulence-as well as basic concepts, the mathematical tools, and the methods for closure. Each method has its own specific performances, and limitations and they appear to be complementary rather than competitive.

Turbulence: The Legacy of A. N. Kolmogorov
ISBN: 9780521451031 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Written five centuries after the first studies of Leonardo da Vinci and half a century after A.N. Kolmogorov's first attempt to predict the properties of flow, this textbook presents a modern account of turbulence, one of the greatest challenges in physics. "Fully developed turbulence" is ubiquitous in both cosmic and natural environments, in engineering applications and in everyday life. Elementary presentations of dynamical systems ideas, probabilistic methods (including the theory of large deviations) and fractal geometry make this a self-contained textbook. This is the first book on...

Fundamentals of Fluid Power Control
ISBN: 9780521762502 / Angielski / Twarda / 510 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This exciting new reference text is concerned with fluid power control. It is an ideal reference for the practicing engineer and a textbook for advanced courses in fluid power control. In applications in which large forces and/or torques are required, often with a fast response time, oil-hydraulic control systems are essential. They excel in environmentally difficult applications because the drive part can be designed with no electrical components and they almost always have a more competitive power/weight ratio compared to electrically actuated systems. Fluid power systems have the...
